A VERY UNLUOKY VESSEL.
Two of It's Captains Die and a Third
Commits Suicide,
After Which the Crew Escapes and
the Vessel is Wrecked. <.i

New YORK, March 5.-The steamship
Ozama, Capt. Tilley, arrived yesterday
from San Domingo, reports that the Ger
man bark ArgO, last from st. Thomas,
went on the rocks under Fort Piolet, be-
came total wreck and was sold. The
Argos unlucky voyage was peculiarly fatal
to her shippers. Capt. Stich died on the
passage from Rangoon to Rio Janeiro. The
mate assumed command and died i'll
Rio Janeiro. The second officer
then took charge of the vessel. Two
captains had died on board in one
voyage. The sailors, naturally supersti-
tious, began to think that fate had marked
the bark and her commanders for destruc
ton. Day after day Of the pleasant voy-
age up the coast passed, however, and they
sped along under a fair wind. Storms
seemed unknown. They recovered their
wonted spirits, and visions Of disaster
haunted them less and less. st. Thomas
was sighted, and for a day the Argo rode
at anchor in the harbor. Then she sailed
for Cape Haytien, and her third
captain congratulated himself that the
nearly done it was for himself and
the good Argo he did not guess. When
Cape Haytien came into view on Feb. IS
the captain stood at the wheel. Suddenly
there was bump and the grinding and
wrenching told that the Argo was ON the
rocks. She had struck on the outer reef.
Then the third and final tragedy of the
Argos last voyage was enacted. The cap
tain rushed below, not one Of the crew had
thought of what was in his mind. He
came tearing up the companion way and
the startled crew saw a revolver in his
hand. They wondered what he in
tended to do. Their wonder turned to
horror. The captain leaped to the rail,
placed the revolver at his head, fired, and
with a cry toppled over the side of the YES
sci. Not trace of his body was seen again.
AS soon as the crew recovered from their
horror they took to the boats and rowed
ashore. Hardly had they landed. when,
looking back they saw the Argo glide off of
the rocks, with all sails set and no one at
the wheel. She started on short apd final
cruise, and for half an hour she cruised the
harbor. Then she struck the rocks again,
this time to stay until broken up. The
crew returned to Germany in a ship which

Mrs. I. II. Dual.
Mrs. I. II. DucaL

The above headlines are the
wording of a dispatch received
from our State Superintendent of
Scientific Instruction, Mrs. I. H.
Duval, and herald the first iegisla-
tive victory scored by the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union of
West Virginia. Let us thank
God and take courage.
Much of the credit of this
triumph is due Mrs. Duval's splen-
did generalship. Much is due the
faithful response OF loyal white
Ribboners" in carrying out the de-
tails of the campaign. There are
others who have forwarded this
measure to whom we are gratefully
indebted for practical work and
practical sympathy.
Mrs. Duval has been peculiarly
fortunate in having in her own
household a corps of efficient aids
and wise councillors who have
given their time and labor without
stint, and with no thought of COM
pensation other than the good
fruits of their own labors. Our
thanks are due the willing hands
and ready pens of the sons and
daughters of this modern Madam
Gracchi. And to her husband,
General |. III. Duval, whose wise
and energetic patronage of the Bill
secured its speedy passage through
both houses of the Legislature,
more than the common words of
courteous gratitude is due. In be-
half of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union of West Vir-
ginia we return to each and all of
these, honest thanks and honest
praise.
To the Legislators who have
heard our petitions and granted
our requests we tender sincere
gratitude.
To the friends whose donations
have made it possible to prosecute
this work we would say, "May the
Lord do so to thee, and even more"
To the patient, persistent, cour-
ageous and energetic Superinten-
dent who has manipulated all these
forces SO wisely and prudently,
thus bringing the desired end, we
would say, Thou hast fought a
good fight" "Thou hast proven
thyself the succorer of many"
